United Nations
The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. It is currently made up of 193 Member States. The mission and work of the United Nations are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.
Due to the powers vested in its Charter and its unique international character, the United Nations can take action on the issues confronting humanity in the 21st century, such as peace and security, climate change, sustainable development, human rights, disarmament, terrorism, humanitarian and health emergencies, gender equality, governance, food production, and more.
The UN also provides a forum for its members to express their views in the General Assembly, the Security Council, the Economic and Social Council, and other bodies and committees. By enabling dialogue between its members, and by hosting negotiations, the Organization has become a mechanism for governments to find areas of agreement and solve problems together.
The UN's Chief Administrative Officer is the Secretary-General.

Target Groups
Degraded lands in Cabo Verde provide many important ecosystem goods and services. These lands provide not only economic benefits, but also social and environmental services. Global environmental benefits related to the establishment of an effective Land Degradation Neutrality system that balances gains and losses of productive land and supports resilient and productive landscapes with a mosaic of land uses and diverse livelihood opportunities will also generate socio-economic benefits for the local communities in the project targeted areas. These benefits include: ? Strengthening of value chains and improvement of market access for revenue and income generation, with improved employment opportunities for rural women and youth in particular; ? Improved food, nutritional and water security for vulnerable rural households that are often headed by women, strengthening their human rights to access to food and water; ? More resilient and equitable livelihoods for both women and men; ? Reduced risk (natural disasters, market volatility, access to information and finance) related to investing in value-chain development, restoration and SLM on degraded lands; and ? Improved access to finance for smallholders for investing in new business plans related to SLM for achieving LDN.
